Airplanes, cats, guns, war, the more than occasional rant about the kleptocracy of The Hair Furor and his party of the Confederacy, the spinelessness of the Democraps and ramblings about anything else that flits through the somewhat offbeat mind of an armed lesbian pinko as she slides down the Razor Blade of Life.Caveat lector.

Dear Zulily: FOXTROT OSCAR ALFA DELTA! Out

A friend's tale:

I ordered two girls' dresses for the daughters of a friend as a Christmas present. The dresses was ordered in early November.

One came, although it took a month. The dress for the younger child, though, was "delayed".

One email after another came from Zulily, revising the shipping/delivery dates. This afternoon (Christmas Eve), an email came from Zulily saying "so sorry, we can't ship it in time".

What the fuck, guys? You had to have known that a few days ago, you couldn't send out a notice? But no, you had to wait until well into the afternoon of Christmas Eve to send out an email of regrets. What the fuck do you expect to be done? It's not like it's possible to rush out and buy a nice dress for the kid tonight. And then it has to be delivered to the family in another frakking state.

Smooth move, guys. One girl has a nice dress for Christmas, her sister has not.
